Who we build for

Non-technical founders

You know the customer and the problem. We bring the product and engineering side, and explain every decision in plain English.

Start with your idea

Founders with early traction

You've got a waitlist, pilots or pre-sales. We turn that demand into a product people can actually sign up for and use.

Turn demand into a product

Founders with a half-built app

A freelancer vanished or the build stalled? We review what's there, tell you honestly whether to build on it or start again, and get it to launch.

Businesses launching something new

How a build runs

Eight weeks from first conversation to a live product is typical for a focused MVP. You'll have something concrete in your hands at the end of every stage.

Bigger scopes take longer. We'll tell you up front if yours is one of them.

  1. Week 1

    Scope

    We work out who your first customer is, the one journey the MVP has to nail, and what's deliberately left for later.

    You get: A signed-off scope and a fixed quote

  2. Weeks 2–3

    Design

    We map the flows and design the screens, then test them with you before a line of production code is written.

    You get: A clickable prototype you can show customers

  3. Weeks 3–7

    Build

    We build in weekly cycles and demo working software every week, so you're never guessing where things are at.

    You get: A working app you can use every week

  4. Week 8

    Launch

    We test across devices, deploy to production or the app stores, and hand everything over.

    You get: A live product, docs and a plan for version two

What it costs

MVP builds from

$20,000

Every build gets a fixed quote once we've scoped it together, so you know the number before we start. The price mostly comes down to how many user journeys, platforms and integrations version one needs.

Every build includes

  • Scoping and product plan
  • UX and interface design
  • Web or mobile build
  • Testing across devices
  • Launch and handover
  • A 90-day bug-fix warranty

After launch

Keep us on for version two. Ongoing development is billed monthly and scoped to your roadmap.

Fixed quote before we start

The price is agreed once scope is signed off, and it doesn't move unless the scope does.

90-day warranty

Bugs in agreed features found within 90 days of launch are fixed free.

You own everything

All code, designs and accounts are yours from day one. No lock-in.

Products we've taken from idea to launch

Mobile App

Shufti

Mechanic-level car inspections, in your pocket

The brief

Secondhand car buyers either pay hundreds for a mechanic or guess. Shufti wanted to give them a confident third option.

What we built

A mobile app that walks buyers through an inspection standing in the driveway: model-specific checklists, compliance checks and an instant report they can use to negotiate.

  • iOS & Android
  • Guided checklists
  • Compliance checks
  • Shareable reports

Web Platform

Nurcha

Smart plant care, run from one platform

The brief

Nurcha looks after indoor plants for businesses, using smart monitoring to know when a plant needs attention. They needed software to run it all.

What we built

The platform behind the service, from client-facing booking to the tools their team uses to track and look after every plant on their books.

  • Web app
  • Client booking
  • Field team tools
  • Monitoring data

Built in Melbourne, for Melbourne founders

We're a local team, so your build doesn't run on someone else's timezone. We'll sit down with you in person to scope the project, and we're a short tram ride away whenever something needs talking through.

  • Same timezone, real-time answers
  • In-person scoping sessions and demos
  • Still here after launch, with a 90-day warranty

Good questions to ask any dev team

Yes, and most of our founders aren't. You bring the customer knowledge; we handle design and engineering and explain the trade-offs in plain English.

Start with a free consultation

Bring whatever you've got: a pitch deck, a sketch on a napkin, or just a problem you want solved. We'll talk it through and tell you honestly what a first version could look like.

You'll leave with

  • The smallest version of your idea worth building
  • A realistic timeline
  • A ballpark cost
